[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Gordon, Gary Hi, I’m developing a custom agent using Perl
scripts. I want to store the password attribute for my agent in encrypted
format. I noticed the built-in agents have an attribute
“isvcsencrypt” set to “true” for their password fields
in their XML configuration files, but there seems to be no indication it is
encrypted anywhere else (in types.cf, for example). There is also a
“vcsencrypt” utility to encrypt agent passwords. I assume the
Java GUI uses the same algorithm as vcsencrypt to encrypt the passwords in the
main.cf file. So the question is how would I decrypt the password in my
Perl agent file? I have looked through the agent and admin documentation
as well as going to the Symantec web site and see no documented API (from Perl
or C++ for that matter) to transform the password back to plaintext. Any
help would be appreciated. Thanks, Gary Gordon |
